FROM: Jeffrey W. Cassidy, Planner
Planning & Development Services Department – Current Zoning Review Section

PROJECT: TC-RES-0326-01485 – Residential Building – Full composition shingle roof replacement over the entire roof area
309 W VIRGINIA ST TUCSON, AZ 85706 (R-2 Zoning)
Site Plan Review – 1st Review

TRANSMITTAL DATE: April 09, 2026

site is in the R-2 Residence Zone (UDC 4.7.9). A single-family residence is a permitted use in this zone (Table 4.8-2) subject to Use Specific Standards 4.9.7.B.6, .9, & .10.

The City's Unified Development Code (UDC) (Section 1.4.1.C) establishes that before the City issues any approvals or permits; we must confirm that a site complies with UDC standards. Therefore, as part of permit reviews, we review a site's permit history and compare it to aerial photography to confirm that unpermitted work has not occurred. In many cases, this does mean that a homeowner must apply for permits for unpermitted work before we can approve any new work on that site.

Plan review for the above referenced roof replacement has been completed. This letter reflects comments to be addressed. For facilitating a shorter back check time, please provide updated plans and calculations with a written response to each of the notated items indicating action taken. Do not cloud the changes made for comment updates; revisions are processed if changes occur after the permit is issued.

1. COMMENT: After reviewing the property documentation history in Property Research Online (PRO), zoning could not verify any permit documentation for the existing structure in the southwest corner of the property around 2015.

Zoning will not be able to approve the permit application until the permit information is provided. If permit documentation cannot be provided, a separate residential alteration permit will be required for this structure.

See instructions below for required information on a site plan for that permit.

2. COMMENT: A site plan provided will be required for the unpermitted accessory structure in the backyard.

Provide a site plan that meets the requirements show in the plot plan example at the following link:

https://www.tucsonaz.gov/files/sharedassets/public/v/2/pdsd/documents/plan-samples/basic-site-plan_feb2026.pdf

Specifically:

A. Draw, label and dimension everything that exists on the property to a scalable drawing graphic (examples include the principal residence, porches, breezeways, sidewalks, driveways, parking spots, walls, fences, ramada, shed, carport, shade sail, cistern, pool, guest house, sleeping quarters, accessory dwelling unit) and provide dimensions of any structure as it relates to nearby structures and property lines and provide the heights (measured from above finish grade to top of wall, etc.) of those structures that run parallel-perpendicular to any nearby adjacent property lines. Provide heights at various locations along the fence/wall if applicable. Label parking areas.

B. Refer to Pima County’s website https://gis.pima.gov/maps/detail.cfm?&parcel=137081040 to locate and provide the parcel number, legal description, subdivision name, book and page numbers, township-section and range, sequence number on the plot plan.

C. Draw, label and dimension all property lines, (provide property line lengths) and any applicable easements to be reflective in the property title report. Refer to Pima County’s website https://onbase.pima.gov/publicaccess/DS_NextGen_Single/etc/cq/results.html?cqid=240&OBKey__552_1=33028 . The math of the property line lengths will produce the total parcel square footage. Be aware that some easements may require referring to the title report of the property (procure at title company if not already in possession). For example, this is especially significant in avoiding building in a utility easement where the provider may need regular access to service. Any need to build within the easement would then require written approval from the utility provider within that easement.

D. As a result of not producing a site plan a lot coverage calculation table was not provided. Per UDC Article 6.4.3.C.1.a roofed areas, porches, open on at least one side are NOT included in the calculation and per UDC Article 6.4.3.B.3.b Vehicular use areas, measured within the outside edges of any area allocated to vehicle use, whether improved or unimproved, are included in the lot coverage.

Calculate (measure) square footage of every enclosed (NOT open structures like a porch, ramada, carport) structure on site and all vehicular use area (driveway, parking, turnaround, backup) and input into lot coverage calculation table. A carport would be calculated under vehicular use area. These separate ‘category numbers are added together and divided by the total parcel square footage to produce the lot coverage percentage that demonstrates compliance (or not).

E. Draw, label and dimension the principal residence graphic to be representative of that via Pima County’s website (property record card) https://www.asr.pima.gov/ParcelData/prc/13708/1040.pdf . Include any unpermitted additions, modifications and label.

F. Draw and label front W Virginia St.

G. Provide dimension from centerline of street name to curb. See the paving plan https://maps-and-records.tucsonaz.gov/construction-plans/details/I-79-019 , sheet #5 for reference.

H. Provide dimension from curb to property line.

I. Provide R-2 zoning labels on all four sides of this parcel (including this parcel).

J. Provide site plan scale, corresponding graphic scale and north arrow on site plan.

3. COMMENT: Additional comments may be forthcoming on the next review based on responses to Zoning and other PDSD reviewer comments.

RESUBMITTAL OF THE FOLLOWING IS REQUIRED:

1. Separate Building permit for unpermitted structure in backyard or separate Demolition permit for unpermitted structure in backyard.
